The screenplay, written by screenwriter Robert Nelson Jacobs, is an adaption of Dick King-Smith's children's novel The Water Horse.

Visual effects, which included the computer-generated imagery of the monster (named " Crusoe" by Etel's character) were completed by the New Zealand-based companies Weta Digital and Weta Workshop- visual effects companies who worked with Walden Media before on the productions of The Chronicles of Narnia films.
